These handsomely illustrated volumes present stories of scientific exploration. Each is documentary in style and filled with facts, but the books also convey the drama of a good story. Benjamin Franklin's early experiments with electricity opened the way for the harnessing of electrical energy. He began by exploring static electricity, and progressed in 1752 to his famous kite experiment in a thunderstorm.
